A glamorous giveaway

So, it's now the future. When I was a child, I thought by 2010 we'd all have flying cars, but instead I find myself all but living in the past! Still, it's a new year and a new decade, and I noticed yesterday that I now have reached a new century of followers too - over 700 now follow this blog, which absolutely dumbfounds me!

So, to celebrate, and because I'd really like to give something back to all my wonderful supporters, I got together with the fabulous Kiss Me Deadly to present a rather special giveaway!

***Update on 22nd January 2010***

The competition to win a whole set of their beautiful peach Alouette lingerie is now closed. I promised to do the draw today - Friday 22nd January, but I have been absolutely overwhelmed (and pleased as punch!) with the response. So it does mean finding the not inconsiderate time to sort out all the entries and do the draw. Please bear with me ladies and chaps, and the winner will be announced on Monday 25th at the very latest!



Alouette is a classically inspired set, consisting of a lightly padded plunge bra, 6-strap suspender belt and a pair of deep, retro knickers (there's also a cincher which isn't included in the giveaway). Modelled here by the stunning Morgana, you can see how amazing Kiss Me Deadly's lingerie looks on curvy girls, but I promise you it looks equally lovely on modern figures! The fabric itself is a shimmering peach, overlaid with delicate floral lace and finished with saucy sheer panels.



I have to say, I'm adoring the Arabian Nights theme of their current collection's photographs! I own a few pieces of Kiss Me Deadly lingerie already and it's beautifully made. I now have my eye on the Ruby Van Doren set and the amazing Jezebel knickers.



Do check back soon to discover who has been the lucky winner. :)

Hello Fleur,
first, thank you for giving us all this marvellous opportunity.
I'd love to win the Set as I have trouble finding nice-looking lingerie (especially because I'm on the busty side of things :D) and I'm a student (and as we all know, they don't have that much money ;) ). Plus, I'd love to be able to use the set in an upcoming Pin Up-Shoot- So please help turning a Geek into a Gal! ;)

It makes me think of Tori Amos lyrics "If I died today, I'd be the happy phantom and I'd go wearing my "naughties" like a jewel. They'd be my ticket to the universal opera!"

Hi Fleur, You are such a classy lady for offering these kinds of things. These would be perfect for a photo shoot I am planning to help my cousin's new photography business get off the ground. I'll be linking to your blog on my livejournal (appleraven) as my blogger blog is more just for me and doesn't have many followers. :)
